We have two more days till History will be made when Tona Brown walks across the stage at Carnegie Hall as the first transgender woman of color to perform there! Please send in your donations and by your tickets! Its' going to be fabulous!

Tona would like her supporters to know that she is also going to be performing with pianist Charlie Gilmer at the TrevorLive NY fundraiser on June 16th, 2014! Ms. Brown supports organizations that fight against lgbt bullying and violence and hopes her performance will remind those attending that she too could have been violently attacked for being the proud woman she is today!

Special thank you for the love and support of people like Jillian Weiss, Gabrielle Anderson, and Keith Dager who donated money to help Tona Brown get to Carnegie Hall on Gofundme! Without people like you this concert would not be able to happen! :)

That's right folks if you donate you now get special perks for doing so. Would you like a signed copy of my CD or VIP Tickets. Depending on your level of support you can receive it all but act fast! Donate today!

Our team is working hard to get Tona Brown to Carnegie Hall and has made an incredible playbill for sponsors and donors who want to be listed in this historical event. Space is limited so inquire today about rates!

I had an incredible time speaking with various celebrities, fans and friends at the GLAAD Media Awards in NYC about this Carnegie Hall debut performance. Everyone is super excited! Let's work hard to get the rest of the money needed!

I have great news guys! We have an official date now! The performance will be Wednesday June 25th, 2014 at 7:30 pm!!! Let's work hard to raise the rest of the money needed to make this event memorable!

Hi, My name is Tona Brown, a transgender violinist and vocalist. I have always dreamed of performing at Carnegie Hall and was recently approved to be the first transgender woman of color to headline at this historical venue.

We are in phase II of our fundraising campaign. After securing the venue we now need help to make sure that all the intricate details are taken care of. As you can imagine Carnegie Hall is one of the most expensive venues in the world. We need your help to offset some of these costs in order to make this historical performance happen.

Many think I am crazy to try something of this magnitude but I know we can raise this money if we work together. Remember no amount is too small to help us to meet our goals! Your donation of $25 or more could help pay for printing costs, insurance, security, recording fees, advertising and so much more!

Update:

Tona Brown will be giving tickets to students from the Hetrick Martin Institute whose mission statement reads: "The Hetrick-Martin Institute believes all young people, regardless of sexual orientation or identity, deserve a safe and supportive environment in which to achieve their full potential. Hetrick-Martin creates this environment for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and questioning (LGBTQ) youth between the ages of 13 and 24 and their families."

As a violin and vocal instructor Tona understands the power of music and what attending a concert like this could mean to lgbt students. She feels that we must support lgbt youth who face bullying, violence and homelessness unlike any other group.

Let's make history together on June 25th, 2014! We CAN do this!! Thank you in advance for your donations and support.
